WE'LL MEET AGAIN
A unique and colourful event encompassing 'Wings,
wheels and Music' took place in the beautiful setting of Glynde Place on the
28th May. The splendid air show consisting of two Spitfires and no less than 17
other historic aircraft was followed by an outdoor concert
provided by the Pendyrus Male Voice Choir and the English National Orchestra.
Over 8,000 people attended the event that included Dame Vera Lynn. The only
downside to the day was that it was rather cold. Many thanks to Adrian Ball for
arranging the admission for our club.

CHARITY CLASSIC MOTORCYCLE RUN
On Sunday the 24th April the Club held its 8th
Motorcycle run with a record number of entrants. Once again the weather was kind
to us and we kept warm and dry throughout the event. In the context of a rather
wet weekend this was very fortunate.

Resuscitation
Today's speaker ( 19th April ) was Dr Peter
Nash a recently retired consultant who gave a first class presentation on
resuscitation.
See
the May bulletin for a full review of his talk.
RIBI's preferred project for the current year
is of course 'Community first Responders' and Peter's talk left no doubt about
how vital this project is. Remember pre- hospital only 5% will survive a heart
attack but 85% have the potential to survive.
RIBI Conference Manchester
We all meet up for a pre-conference meal at our hotel.
Excited at the prospect of a good conference full of fun and fellowship. Did it
live up to our expectations. See the answer in the May bulletin.

LIMITED EDITIONS
Today (15th March 2005) we had three speakers from Limited
Editions who are part of the Richmond Fellowship, a charity that has been
providing assistance to those with mental health problems for more than 40
years.
They believe that work is the best route to feeling good
about yourself. They want their clients to discover their abilities and unleash
their creativity. They can help to develop skills and boost confidence.
They don't provide therapy or analysis at Limited
Editions, but they do have a great deal of experience of mental health issues
and the problems and fears that people can face when trying to get into work.
Their aim is to get their clients working and independent where possible.
Today Rachel, who is a client, overcame her anxiety
challenges to talk to the club as someone who has benefited from Limited
Editions and she was excellent. Rosie and Pauline outlined the work of Limited
Editions and the problems it faces with a lack of money , public awareness and
the need to find supportive employers. If you would like to find out more
contact Limited Editions on 01273 571373.
WELCOME TO OUR NEW HOME
We now meet every Tuesday at the
Sussex County Cricket Ground Hove, 12.30 for 1pm. Except
on fifth Tuesdays when we meet in the evening.

Great View
`


It was truly a great Rotarian occasion with the joint theme of President’s
Night and Centenary Celebrations.
The Dyke Golf Club done us proud and every one commented on the good quality
of the food. (continued)
During the meal President Ken took drinks with various groups and after the
meal we were royally entertained by, firstly, Ian Collington who presented a
very amusing film entitled "The World Wide Web" and this was follows by a song
from Bob Hinton (reproduced above) which involved participation by everyone
present.
During the evening there were contributions from District Governor Peter
Nightingale (The Centenary Toast), Bob Mulholland (Toast to our guests) and
Inner Wheel President Brenda Couch (The response on behalf of the guests)
DG Peter also gave a short talk entitled "A Century of Service Above Self"
In between all these various contributions, President Ken also had the very
pleasant task of awarding a Paul Harris Fellowship to Rotarian Jenny Saunders of
Brighton and Hove Breakfast Club. The award was for her services to charity,
these services being well known to all members of our Club.
A really terrific night, thoroughly enjoyed by all present.
I spoke afterwards to Terry Crimp, President of Brighton Rotary Club, and he
said he most impressed with the presentation by Ian Collington, and also said
what a great night it had been.

IPP Howard Attree) 09:30 07/01/05
I have received phone calls from some members who
did not complete the board on Tuesday but want to help collect on
either Saturday or Sunday. This will not be a problem just turn up as and when
throughout the weekend. The meeting point is just outside Churchill Square where
you will see some banners and A boards.
16:14 07/01/05
DG's OFFICIAL VISIT
A brief history of the Housing Association was given with news of £40,000
received that morning from Ms Foreman and also confirmation of funds from The
Alex Clarke Club of £70,000-£80,000. Deposits were also being taken for 29,
Sackville Road even before building works started.
The District Governor was impressed with this news saying that he was not
aware of our "Jewel in the Crown" of the Rotary Club of Hove, The Housing
Association, and he mentioned the Jewel in the Crown of Polio Plus in Rotary and
the centennial celebrations taking part in District, RIBI, and Worldwide.
BEETLE MANIA HITS MANOR
The annual Beetle Drive was held at
Hangleton Manor last night much to the amusement of the regulars. Once again
thanks must go to Jenny Saunders for hosting the event in aid of the Pink
Dolphin Appeal.
The winner 'mind the gap' Ian with a
magnificent score of 142 was too exhausted to give an interview afterwards but
his prize should enable him to pull a little cracker over the Christmas hols.
Ian also won the prize for drawing the best
beetles. Where did he find the time? or can men multitask ?
